    Great, something really important like the old blink tag. /s Only people programming ads will like this. Everybody else will pretty much hate its guts.

    I'm OK with this, under the condition that Facebook only uses it to alert you of photos you likely appear in, i.e. those two first examples of what it can do. I would not allow the…
